AI Intelligence Analysis

NEUTRAL -1YELLOW ZONE50.1% WR (n=244)
Pitcher mismatch: Bradley (10.1 K/9, B-) >> Sugano (5.0 K/9, C+). Model home lean 58.1%. But OVER 9.0 edge 26.2% at 69.0% — EXTREME HIGH_EDGE_WARNING (disabled market). YRFI edge 6.8% (58.4% prob) indicates first inning runs likely (1.63 avg). Contradictory signals: edge too high to trust, market may cap under-pricing. CAUTION.

Key Factors

  • PITCHER MISMATCH: Bradley (10.1 K/9, B-, 25.4% K) >> Sugano (5.0 K/9, C+, 14% K) — 5.1 K/9 gap favors home
  • Model home lean 58.1% — correct
  • EXTREME_EDGE_WARNING: OVER 9.0 edge 26.2% at 69.0% model prob — EXCEEDS any credible thresholds. Totals disabled (F grade).
  • Contradictory signal: YRFI edge 6.8% at 58.4% (first inning avg 1.63 runs) suggests high-scoring opening, but OVER edge implies total run explosion
  • Market 9.0 total vs model 13.63 = 4.6 run gap — implausibly large. Market correct to doubt OVER edge.

Risk Factors

  • EXTREME_EDGE_WARNING: 26%+ edge historically worst performance. Totals disabled.
  • Contradictory OVER/YRFI signals suggest model uncertainty or miscalibration
  • Market -166 home heavy but low total suggests sharp aware of OVER inflation
